Are you just trying to avoid trapping mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] in other header_filter_rules? You can do that, but first, here are some things you can't do with header_filter_rules. You can't bypass holds for bounce_matching_headers. You can't bypass membership and moderation checks. You can't bypass other holds such as message too big, etc. This is because the Accept action on a header_filter_rules rule only means pass the header_filter_rules tests. It doesn't mean unconditionally accept the message. So assuming that what you want is to bypass the other header_filter_rules, you need to "add new item" before the current rule 1 so the new rule becomes #1. Then the new rule 1 regexp should be ^from:.*(\s|<)[EMAIL PROTECTED](\s|>|$) and the action Accept. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
